WASHINGTON, D.C.: Nat Geo WILD has announced an August debut for its first-ever digital series, wild_life With Bertie Gregory.

Due out August 3 on the network’s YouTube channel and website, the series follows 22-year-old wildlife filmmaker Bertie Gregory as he journeys to the west coast of Vancouver Island in search of the elusive coastal wolves. The production is slated to last 16 episodes.

“This series is as much about the adventure to get the shot as it is about the shot itself,” said Gregory. “I’m taking viewers into the wild and getting up close and personal with Canada’s sexiest coastal predators. The camera is always rolling. It’s raw. It’s real. It’s intimate. And I’m excited to be a part of Nat Geo WILD’s first venture into the digital space.”

“We are thrilled to extend the WILD brand beyond television to reach our audiences wherever they are,” said Geoff Daniels, the executive VP and general manager of Nat Geo WILD. “Bertie is a great ambassador for us, and his adventures in this new series will be celebrated across National Geographic’s many platforms, including SnapChat, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Nat Geo LIVE! and more.”
